Seth outlines 5 reasons why higher education is about to crash and burn:
Most colleges are organized to give an average education to average students.
Pick up any college brochure or catalog. Delete the brand names and the map. Can you tell which school it is?
College has gotten expensive far faster than wages have gone up.
The definition of ‘best’ is under siege.

i wish summers in georgia were less humid
maybe then anybody could get anything done without losing 5 lbs in water weight.
The guitar concert tonight actually went very well
catherineragan:
despite the fact that my guitar fell over right before sound check and one of the tuners broke off. Like…broke off, tuning peg and all. The A string wouldn’t stay in tune so one of the other guitarists tried to help me fix it, and the tuner is now held onto the headstock with neon yellow gaff tape and my capo. I need to find a music store in Atlanta so I can get it repaired…

i love story of the year.

Today has been absolutely exhausting.
And stressful. But good at the same time.
Tomorrow morning i have to get up and get my wisdom teeth out at 830 and i’m absolutely terrified. Ive never had surgery or an iv or any of that stuff and i’m like, ugh, and my allergies are driving me crazy
i have a headache and i’m really worried, but assuming all goes well i’ll talk to you...
“we came in happy donkey”
– some shit noah said.
after a bit of facebook stalking
i’m wondering if i was the influence behind chase peacock dying a blonde stripe is his hair.
i’m probably not that cool.
a little script i'm working on.
(spoilers: its about jess)
(spoilers: she's a cunt)
nick: hey jess.
nick: you're a cunt
(end scene)
so, starting today
molly officially lives with me. she’s been pretty much living here for a couple months already, but she just sublet her apartment. so my house is the only place she lives now.
i feel like such an adult. i’m a little scared.
i'm so fucking angry.
longboarding is my escape, that one thing i do that makes all the bullshit go away. i have no problems when i longboard. it relaxes me, relieves stress, you name it.
for the past two weeks, i’ve been total shit on my longboard. i cant slide, save for a few random shitty speedchecks. nothing responds like i expect it to. it used to be so effortless. now i have to put all of my focus and...
velociraptors are so badass.
i need to frequent more punk shows.
i wanna feel that energy.
in other news, i have my trucks back from sir wil, cant wait to start splicing new boards together.
so noah might have a legitimate disorder
its called nominal aphasia.
i havent been this worked up in a long time.
i’m kinda wired. i want resolution. bloody, violent resolution.
and i’m the peaceful one.

Awesome. I am one of those 200.
uh.
ew.
aaaaand
just like that, I’m home alone again.
relationships, etc
everyone’s current relationship turmoil (all my friends are newly single/in love with cripples) has given me an entire night to reflect on my own relationship with Molly. in the past, if I had a night to myself to think about my current relationship, I broke up with the girl within 24 hours.
can’t say I have that problem right now. I’m completely in love with this girl. as my...

LOOK WHAT I JUST ORDERED →
its not super exciting, but i’m pretty gay for it.
its been a long fucking week
james’ shit, my own shit, noah’s shit…
i’m so tired. molly is off consoling her friend, noah is asleep, and james is.. somewhere. so i’m home alone. and bored. i wanna talk to emily henry. she always cheers me up if i’m down or bored. i dont even know when i’ll see molly again. she’ll be galavanting around all weekend.
going longboarding...
well.
looks like i’m alone tonight.
Overall
the “history” that american children are taught all through school is utter bullshit.
but i suppose history IS written by the winners.
